The Save the Bobs Campaign
It has come to my attention that some people on xanga are a little confused and others are skeptical of my plan to Save the Bobs.
I want to deal with the confusion first. Apparently one little extra “o” has thrown the campaign off.
The Bobs of the world are in trouble. They are quickly dying off.
You probably know about Bob Marley. He died.
Then there is Bob Hope. He died also.
Then there is Bob Kennedy. They shot and killed him.
So you can see the Bobs are dropping like flies.
Have you taken a look at Bob Barker recently?
He won’t last long.
So I have designated October as Save the Bobs month.
I am going to raise awareness to the fact that we are all impacted by the issue of Bobs dying off.
Now you are going to hear complaints during this month. You are going to hear people say that there is already awareness of the dying Bob issue. But think about it. We will be more aware of this issue if a site like mine gets everyone involved.
It will also cause people to check their own Bobs to make sure they are ok.
You will also see people saying they are doing more than we are in our campaign. They will announce they have already donated more money to saving the Bobs than we have. We tip our hats to them even though we never heard them mention saving the Bobs before we raised the issue.
Some people will say that it is not Christian to save the Bobs. I want to remind them that God created the Bobs and He meant us to see them. In fact, the Bible never mentions it is wrong to look at the Bobs.
So I need your help the entire month.
Who is with me in my effort to Save the Bobs?

Quick, let’s print some t-shirts and get this campaign started! Bobs are an endangered species, threatened by the growing population numbers of Johns and Matts!
Bob Dole is next!
Do I need to wear a pink ribbon for this one too?
‘sniff’ Bob Hope and Bing Crosby made some great movies in their day… eh.. I feel old now.
<3.
The coolest Bob was Bob on Twin Peaks.
Bob the Builder seems cool – please let him live. But i don’t have kids yet, so I may want him dead if he is in the Barney zone.
lol
PS – Jillian looks really hot in the ad..i think they painted her face on.
@Legendairy - Bob Hope is really great and Bing Crosby too..great movies I have seen with those two.
So do you need us to send you pictures of Bobs in support of this endeavor?
Bob from Sesame Street is getting up there, too.
i like my Bobs!
Bob Barker is the man! He always promos the spay/neuter!
And that’s kind of a scary picture of Bob Barker, just sayin’.
I’m okay!!
Also feel free to use my profile picture in your endeavor.
Whew! Thank you, Dan! I haven’t seen a Bob in –FOREVER
I <3 you, Dan. lol
i resent the bob barker remark.
he’ll live forever, in my heart!
Death to BOB! lol Hey someone always has to be the opposition right?
well my dads named Bob…maybe i should start calling him robert. He seemed fine today.
You know I’m game to save the boobs….oooops, I meant Bob’s!!
NOW it all makes sense! haha.
Oh wow unbelievable. I have sad news. I went to visit the bobs page and I must report that it has been wiped clean. http://bobs.xanga.com/ we may already be too late…….
Poor innocent bobs! Im glad the world has you, Dan. =]
yikes, I guess you’re right. I don’t even know any Bobs :O this is a problem.
I’m all for saving the Bobs!
“Waves Save Bob sign up and down”. I’m with ya!!!
Bob Marley is dead? D:
Who knew that some little typo could turn into a wonderfully sarcastic blog?
awesome. I am so glad you thought of bob barker, he immediately came to mind when I read the title.
Awww I miss Bob Barker, he was the best TV gameshow host for sure
He needs help!
Man. This is quite interesting. Your knowledge of Bobs AKA Roberts is pretty strong. Bob Backlund ain’t exactly a spring chicken either. And neither is Bob Gainey. lol
PS Bob Marley is one of my idols. One Love!
@Ampersands_Anonymous - me thinks somebody intended it that way.
For November try to save the Dicks.
So many Bobs! Confused! Confused!
Gonna require a good supply of batteries to honor all the BOBs
I smiled all the way through this post. A huge smile
‘Bobs are dropping like flies’. I know, it’s a shame. Unfortunately I have no Bobs to take care of.
I am! My bosses bosses boss, Bob Evans, died last year.
Also – OFFICE SPACE!
Oh yes, bobs are awesome. They’re always there when you need comfort.
@bundleoflisa - Hahahahahaaa. Your comment was the best.
BOB THE BUILDER!
No worries, I checked my Bob, he is looking fine and healthy as ever! Youthful Bob the window cleaner.
This entry was the best entry on Earth. Hahahaha.
Hooray for Bobbies
Seems like all the best Bobs are already gone, but I suppose Dylan, DeNiro and Zemeckis are worth saving.
@EndlessMike03 - Yes they did. Particularly, his family called him Bobby. They also called John “Jack” and Edward “Teddy.”
I know a Rob. I’d better check on him… that’s too close to be overlooked.
My dad’s name is Bob… I should probably go bug him about getting a colonoscopy. Thanks, Dan, for making such wonderful conversations possible (:
I have a few Bobs that I want to save. Count me in!
LET’S SAVE THE BOBS!!!!!!!!!1 =D
我係咪識你架?
Fuck Bob.
Dan, I am right behind you on this! I have been doing what I can to save the bobs since 2004.
What do you need us to do??
The only Bob I knew is dead already.
@roujinia_4172 - A good question! lol
It will probably be a little less morally ambiguous to expose the Bobs.
HAHAHA
Those signs are totally photoshopped, but this post made me laugh.
What I want to know is this: does this also apply to Robs and Roberts, who could become Bobs with very little notice? If so, then this issue touches my life quite personally. If not then I don’t have anything personally at stake here, though I may still support this campaign through purely altruistic motives.
In that past you’ve posted some obscene ideas but this one takes the cake!
I guess in principle this is a good idea, but does it mean we also have to save Bob Saget?
BOB…save Bob!! I’m in!
Oh gosh, how is bob the tomato doing?
Hahaha, this post is hysterical. And I like the “Save Bob” picture, I don’t even understand how you could have found that.
Ah yes, a dieing breed indeed. My dear uncle Bob had a close call last month and has lots of rehab before things get back to normal. Although technically I can be called Bob, I’m not quite ready to take on that roll.
Save BOB!
All for it!
Haha. You’re silly.
I’ve been trying to save my boyfriend’s dad (Bob) for a while now. This is a great campaign!
(hahaha i love you)
funny how Bobs is just one letter short of your favorite thing in the whole wide world…
That was really funny.
Two Bobs in my family; brother and nephew. Both are hale and hearty. BTW: I believe Bob Newhart is still hanging in there. Let’s all give him the iconic “Hi, Bob!”, shall we?
I love looking at Bobs! Reginas as well. Save them all!
Dan,you just make me laugh.
